LAWN GRASS SEED 
A smooth, velvety lawn surrounding a house adds not only to the value, but enhances the enjoyment 
of every home. The most important thing to consider in selecting seed for a lawn is to obtain a mixture 
of several varieties properly blended. By properly choosing early, medium and late Grasses in a mix¬ 
ture, a smooth, even green lawn is assured from early spring to late autumn. We especially recommend 
Lagomarsino’s Lawn Mixture for a beautiful lawn, and all our other Grasses as being of the highest 
grade, thoroughly cleaned and tested, and especially adapted for their purpose. 
Sow at the rate of one pound for 150 to 200 square feet, according to variety of Grass. 
A lawn to be beautiful must be kept in good condition. First of all, grass is a gross feeder and it 
must be fed continually. Periodic dressings of fertilizer are needed, even if the lawn looks and is grow¬ 
ing well. Under trees the grass has a constant battle for nourishment. Often grass dies under trees— 
not from shade but from soil impoverishment. It pays to feed both the grass and the trees. We recom¬ 
mend the application of our Bearmor on lawns. It is a well balanced plant food and if the lawn is 
given a dressing of this in the spring and several applications made during the summer it will give 
excellent results.
